10 YEARS LATER
Hello gentlemen and ladies. I wanted
to thank you for the fine chopper kit that I
installed over 10 years ago. Still rock-solid and
beautiful. Out riding today and got compliments from
a fellow Harley rider at a light. My bike is #32 in
your Harley list and about 90
percent down the list of customer's rides and
feedback. I retired from northern Indiana to Myrtle
Beach, S.C. four years ago and enjoy riding year
round. Thanks again. Jeff Penn |

I have to
say I looked at these kits for years dreaming of
putting the max rake on my bike.I looked at all of
them and worried about everything, read all the
reviews, listened to Harley say “Man you don’t want to
put one of those on your bike” FINALLY just said do
it.I emailed and asked a few last minute questions and
the next day I got a call back. Wow, not only
was Greg very patient in answering all my questions
but even offered a lot of insight and tips on things I
didn’t think about.
He even offered help and assistance if I got stuck
along the way… Who does that anymore?
I worked
on it after hours when I got home, followed the step
by step instructions and after a few days out in the
garage a few hours a night I was done!What I got was
exactly what I dreamed about… AWSOMENESS.

I bought my first bike 52 years ago. Always loved choppers, however afraid of a dangerous unmanageable ride.
It was because of your many pleased customers that I chose Chopper Supply, and what a great choice.
It is ingenious how your kit changes the neck rake as well as the tube rake, making a perfect ride.
I went with 18° and 10" over stock length on my XL1200V. A great small chopper. Finally a bike that I am proud of.
Your kit stretched out the ride like a soft spring. It handles so crisp and solid with absolutely no wabble at any speed.
It is because of your knowledge and experience that makes your kit exactly right.
Thank you for creating an old man's dream bike.
P.S. It was an easy job for just one person in one day. Probably 2 hours if I had done one before.

Just installed the 14 degree 6in over kit on my 99 FXR3.
absolutely love the look, exactly what this bike was needing.
After putting several hundred miles on I can honestly say it
handles just like it always did! The only difference I've
noticed is the overall ride is smoother and softer. Best upgrade
I've done on the bike to date. Customer service was over the
top, most accommodating people I've ever dealt with. Thanks Greg
for a great product and unsurpassed customer service.

I have attached some additional photos other then the ones I sent last weekend for your web site . I found one of prior to the conversion. Just additionally, I am very pleased with the results, should have done it sooner. For those fearing to do it, go for it, you wont even regret it. My wife has a sportster trike using Frankenstein kit, I am now trying to convince her to do hers , It will happen , just a matter of timing. Once I do , it will get my 14 degree and I will upgrade to the 18 degree. Great product, great chrome, great instructions

I have lowered, Chopped, Stretched 14 degrees, and I chromed the hell out of it. I took first place in the softail category at 2013 Brants HD bike show.
It has been my winter project for 3 years since 2010. I did all the mechanical & electrical work myself. I machined the bracket for the license plate holder myself.

Hello Greg,
Thank you for your great customer service because it is second to none. Your product is top notch too, and thanks for the great tips on getting an extra 1” out of the tube length. You guys know your MC’s for sure. I took my new look 2010 Harley wide glide to Sturgis this year and the compliments were many. People taking pictures of my bike like crazy. I also won 1st place in a local bike show. In addition to the great looks, the bike handles great. The hair pin turns on Needles highway and Iron Mountain highway in the Black Hills SD were amazingly easy to navigate.I gotta tell you that I just love the new look. Thanks for everything Greg. I attached some pics. Enjoy them.

Hey guys,
Just wanted to send you some pics of the finished rake kit on my 2004 Harley xl1200c (Sporty 240). This is your 9 degree rake that i had bought last year from you guys. I got to say, that your product is next to flawless in workmanship, and was extremely straight forward to install. The bike took a major transformation for the better! I did the install myself which took me about 4hrs total! Thanks for a great product and keep up the good work guys! Hope you enjoy the pics.

Thanks again for everything your help made this go so smooth

Hey
Guys:
Here are
a few
pics of
my bike
after I
had the
kit
installed.
I must
say I
was a
little
worried
that I
might
not like
the way
it would
handle
once the
front
end was
changed,but
2
minutes
up the
road and
I was
grinning
so hard
my face
hurt( or
maybe it
the
weather
that
day),
notice
the snow
in the
background.
However
I love
the
Look, I
love the
ride,it
handles
like a
dream,
and I
really
like the
comments
and the
thumbs
up I get
where
ever I
go. It
would be
awesome
to see
these on
your
website.
Thanks.
No
Regrets.

First of all let me thank you for your super help and guidance in the entire process. I have been blown away with how good the bike looks after the rake kit was installed. I also did a bunch of other things as well. I am attaching a couple of before pictures as well as after so you can see the awesome transformation. Lowered the rear end about 2 1/2", new seat, handle bars, grips, mirrors, foot pegs, pipes, rockers boxes, pushrods covers, derby, inspection and timing covers, headlight, front and rear turn signals, brake light, front fender and a new paint job. I have gotten quite a few compliments on the bike since all the work was completed. And lastly I have been very impressed as to how the bike handles after the rake kit install. Very solid and true. It is a very well made product. Please feel free to use my pictures or letter on your website as you see fit. Thanks again.

Hi ken,
Well I
finally
got
around
to
installing
the
14deg
rake 6”
over
41mm
upgrade
to my
2004
sportster.
Being
from
Scotland
with the
up &
down
twisty
curvy
roads
that we
have it
took me
a year
or more
to
decide
if this
was the
right
thing to
do.
I must
have
read
every
review
that you
had on
your
website
before I
made up
my mind
&
finally
decided
to go
for it.
The kit
arrived
but with
other
commitments
& bad
winter I
never
got
around
to it
for over
8
months.
I am not
a
mechanic
by any
means
but
decided
I wanted
to
install
the kit
by
myself.
I
installed
the kit
over 2
days by
myself
just
taking
my time.
The only
part
that
took a
little
bit
longer
than
expected
was the
removal
of the
steering
bearing
reassess
on the
frame.
Ended up
buying a
little
dremil
grinder
to cut
them &
nock
them
out.
other
than
that
everything
else
went as
per your
instructions.
In the
UK when
your
bike is
over 3
years it
has to
be
inspected
at a MOT
testing
station
once a
year by
law to
ensure
that it
is fit
to be
driven
on the
road.
As soon
as I got
there I
was
bombarded
by
bikers
asking
me about
the bike
& the
chopper
kit. And
where it
came
from.
The bike
passed
no
problem
& the
mechanics
remarked
how good
the
quality
of the
kit was.
I have
now put
several
hundred
miles on
the bike
since
fitting
the kit
& its
been
money
well
spent I
love the
way the
bike
looks &
rides.
I notice
very
little
difference
at low
speeds
in the
handling
characteristics
possibly
have to
lean
over a
little
more on
bends
compared
to
standard
but it
took me
all of 5
seconds
to get
used to
that.
For
anyone
that is
sitting
on the
fence go
for it
you wont
regret
it.
For
anyone
who is
worried
about
seat
height
as I
said I
went for
the
14deg 6”
over
standard
& there
is no
difference
in seat
height.
To
standard.
Hear are
a few
photos
of my
sportster
also i
instaled
a bobber
headlight
to fill
up the
wider
front
end.
Thanks
for all
your
help.
All the
Best

My winter
project is
finally
finished and
I wanted you
all to see
how it
turned out.
I have
attached
both before
and after
photos of my
bike. All I
can say is,
what a
killer
transformation!
My
bike truly
went from
mild to wild
with
the chopper
kit
installed.
We also
chopped the
rear end,
lowered the
fender 1-1/2
inches and
added an old
school 50s
chopper
taillight.
With the
chopper kit
and new
paint, people come
up and talk
to me about
it and
even take
photos of it
with
their phones. I
have gotten
a bunch
of compliments
on it and
plan
on entering some ride
in bike
shows this
spring.
Before the
kit, my bike
rarely got a
second
glance.
What an
extreme
makeover for
a 9 year
old bike! Your
kit has made
me fall in
love with it
all over
again. It
is like
having a
totally
new motorcycle.
It took a
minute
to get used
to it at
first, but
now I love
the way it
looks, rides
and
handles.
Your chopper
kit is
high quality
and the best
upgrade
I have done
to my bike!
I won't
hesitate to
recommend
your company
to anyone
who will
listen.
Feel free to
post the
photos on
your website
and my
thanks to
you guys for
great
service

sale.

I just wanted to thank you guys
for making such a great product
and thought you might like to
see the transformation my 07
Sporty went through. I could not
be any happier with the results
I got. Custom paint and a raked
out wide-glide front end made
all the difference!

SOLD
!!!
Hey
Ken,
My name
is Bruce Brady and I live down here in
Brookhaven, MS. I purchased a front end
kit from you guys a couple of years ago
and have been absolutely thrilled with
it! You produce a fantastic product!. I
had a local bike shop here in Brookhaven
(Whistle Stop) do the work and my bike
quickly became the hot topic of a lot of
great discussion!
I have
recently bought a 09 Fatboy and sometime
in the not to distant future I plan to
have it raked out a bit too! In the
meantime, I am trying to sell my 07
Sporty. I need to get a minimum of
$10,000 for it since I have almost $18K
invested in it. I would certainly
appreciate any info you could send my
way.
Thanks
again,

fit well and even the head lights and 4"
spots worked along with the wind shield.

different but well worth the look

Greg,
Just got the kit installed on my 09 Dyna
Superglide, I went with the 18 degree, 6" over
stock. I am literally in "HOG HEAVEN" now while
cruising around Biloxi MS on my tweaked out
ride. Just like so many more before me have
said on the website, this kit totally rocks!!!.
The personal service you guys provide to
customers is awesome and just something you
rarely see these days.
Chris and Eric at Whistlestop Choppers in
Brookhaven Mississippi did a kick A job on my
install and their customer service is
top-notch. I have attached a before and after
picture. Thanks again for all the support, if
you are ever down my way, look me up and and we
will hoist a few cold beverages.

Hey guys,
Thanks for all your help and a great front
end kit, I ordered the 18 degree with 8" over
stock. The local HD dealership installed it and
was impressed by the quality and engineering.
the angle of the forks and the tank set up on
the Nightster prevented any stock risers from
being used, so the guys from Design Worx
Motorcycle Shop here in jersey customized a set
of bars for me. here are a few before and after
pics of the conversion,
Thanks again, Keith t.

Greg,
I finally
got a chance
to sit down
to thank you
for your
great
service. I
have to tell
you that
your chopper
kit was
everything I
expected and
more. With
your
expertise
and
experience,
you helped
me make
decisions
and
recommendations
that were
right on the
money. I
can't thank
you enough.
I purchased
the 14
degree
chopper kit
with new
forks(along
with new
chrome parts
for the
total front,
including
handle bars,
controls,
brake
caliper,
turn
signals). I
am a do it
yourselfer
that has
never
touched the
bike and I
felt like I
had you by
my side
every step
of the way.
Once I
received all
the parts, I
took my time
to dismantle
my bike and
put it back
together
with ease.
The whole
process only
took a few
days. When
I called to
ask
questions
you were
there to
answer. It
was as if
you knew my
bike and
tugged the
wrench
yourself.
Thanks again

Ken, Greg,
Thanks for the 14 degree, 4” over
kit. The installation is pretty straightforward. I
don’t have a lot of miles on the bike yet but the first
30 are very solid. At speed it is more steady than
stock. Low speed handles like a typical chopper.

I had a 14Degree 6" os kit installed on my 2006 1200 custom
Harley®. I'm just getting used to it and the weather here in
central PA isn't the best yet, but where I have gone I
nothing but good comments. I just want to thank Ken & Greg.
I was told about the slow speed turns. I'm only 5'4". I
lowered the stock bike. With the kit now installed I have
better control at all speeds.

Hi just thought I would
send some pics. And tell
you how it turned out I
love the way it looks.
I had the local Honda
shop do the forks and
did the rest in my shop.
This kit is great and
not
hard to install.
I
would like to thank you
for all your help its
nice to know that there
is still a
company that helps the
customer like you do.

Hi
Ken,
It's been a month since I
installed the chopper kit on my
Harley®. I am still thrilled that
I installed it. I have ridden
the bike to one
rally and on two charity runs
since then, and the bike gets
lots of compliments. I make sure
to tell folks where I bought the
kit and how helpful you and Greg
were to me. I appreciate all
that you did to help me.
I have attached a couple photos
of the bike for you to see how
it turned out. I would be
honored if you posted them on
your web site!
The info on my bike: it's a 2004
Harley®-Davidson XL883, with the
18-degree kit and 10 over tubes,
with 5.5 inch risers and drag
bars.
Let me know if you need any
other info ( I remember wanting
to know what everyone had done
to their bikes when I was
considering how I would do mine)
.
Thanx again,

Greg:
Got back from vacation and finally had a chance to finish
the installation of the 14 degree, 41mm wide-glide kit.
Without a doubt, this was the most well engineered, finished
and fitting aftermarket kit of any type I have ever had the
pleasure to install. Everything fit like an expensive
leather glove. No missing parts, no parts that didn’t fit -
unbelievable! By the way, as you originally thought, I was
able to utilize the original H-D XLC pull-back risers with
the speedo mounted on the bottom. It actually looks better
than any other combination I considered and I have over
3/8' clearance between the bottom of the speedo and the gas
cap. I included some pictures so you could see the finished
product. By the way, the turn signal lights you recommended
were awesome.
Thanks again for all the help and a great product. I will
be talking to you in the near future about a front-end kit
for another 'sporty' and a wide tire kit.
Best always,

Hey Guys:
Thanks for all your help...i finally
got my bike back from the shop and
wanted to share pics. I have a 18

lowered 1.5" in the back. It rides
great and the person that installed
may be contacting you soon. Thanks

Ken,
Just thought you might like to see the results of
the kit...
I just got it back, and it's AWESOME !! What can I
say? I simply LOVE IT!
Even the guys at the shop that I had install it made
several good comments
about the kit, and they BUILD Choppers!
I'm enclosing before and after shots for you.
(okay, mainly after shots) :)
Thanks again for your help, and for catching the
dual break setup issue in my order.
It's great to know you're 'on the ball' with your
customers. When I do the Honda Shadow,
I will definately be going this route again!

I love my front end.
My bike handles awesome in every aspect. I ride my
"chopster" just as hard as when it was stock. The 9
deg 4" over kit keeps my bike in proportion. The
only noticeable difference is the front braking
force, this is probably due to the increased rake
and mass of the billet wheel. the bike handles
excellent at even slow speeds. I highly recommend
the kits to anyone. Thanks guys, I will be
calling you for my next project!

Hi Greg & Ken,
Thank you very much for this amazing kit. I
hesitated many months to buy it and it's the
best thing I ever made for my bike. I sent
my bike to Moto Route 66 in Ste-Marie,
Beauce, QC to install it. It took 8 hours to
install without any problems. The ride is
better thank stock, more precise. Look at
these pics!

I am so amazed
at this kit!! Wasn't difficult to do at all and
the ride, way better than stock!
Handles beautiful without that chopper front
wheel dive. I went with the 14 degree kit with
6" over tubes, man that was the ticket! The
engineering of the kit is superb as is the fit
and finish. So here are the pics before and
after. So glad I didn't have to break out the
sawsall and the torch! Ha! Thanks again for such
a great product! Hope to see these pics on your
site!

Hi Ken,
I ordered the 14 degree kit w/ the 8 inch
over tubes for my 06 Honda shadow VT600 back
in February 2008. I absolutely love it!!An
right now I'm the only one in the
Clarksburg, WV area that has anything like
this done to their metric bike and its a big
head turner everywhere I go. I believe it
handles better now then it ever did before.
I did all the work to the bike my self it
was pretty much a winter project, which I
enjoyed and thinking about start another
motorcycle winter project this year since it
was so much fun.
Thanks,
Jason F.

a before and after picture so you could put

All done and what a
great experience. The kit is A1 quality and your
Tech support was outstanding.
Not only does my bike now have the custom look I
wanted, but the ride is unbelievable.
The bracket you designed worked perfect and as
desired, permitted me to re-use the stock lights.
Hats off to and especially thanks for the awsome
support.

I got the 18 degree kit with
8" overstock tubes for my 99 Hugger. I had Big Harry's
garage put the forks together and I installed it
myself. It wasn't too difficult.
Thank you very much from a happy customer, best damn

The bike is fun to ride and my Sporty turns heads now,
sweeeet.

Man where do I
start? Well I could go on and on about how I
LOVE this kit and about how it turns heads
everywhere I go, but everyone says that. So
OK, I will too. This kit rocks!!! Took less
than a day including changing the rear
fender. The next day, took it for a test
ride, two weeks later I am still grinning
ear to ear. Put two weeks worth of slow,
stop and go, commute to work, city traffic.
Not one problem! Just got back from a 3 day
weekend, 1000 mile ride, Hwy, backroads, in
town mix and WOW!!! I Love It. Thanks for
the wonderful kit so that I could complete
my dream of owning a chopper.
P.S. I installed
the 14*, 8 over, 39mm, Narrow Glide version.
Just thought future buyers might want to see
what the Narrow Glide would look like, and
with the apes laid back with the Corbin
seat, it becomes a recliner. I love it!!!

Greg & Ken,
Recently I purchased a kit from you guys let me tell
ya...so impressed with the end result! I had to call
and talk to Greg a few times and he was insightful and
helpful in recommending the proper kit for my bike. I
live in Philadelphia, PA and not matter the distance
between us one interest is the same...BIKES & CHOPPERS!
Coolaid Customs did the installation & some fabrication
and I could not be anymore satisfied. my bike is a 2005
Suzuki Boulevard S83 and i had the 14 degree w/ 8 inch
overstock tube kit as well as glide risers and 1' Z-Bars
w/ 4' rise installed. great call...looks awesome!
added a few graphics on my own and there ya have it.
your products & service certainly deserve two thumbs
up! many a compliment has been given about my bike but
it's all about you. thanks for everything and will
recommend you to anyone who inquires. enjoy the pics
enclosed.

Thank you for everything. The bike turned

can't believe its the same bike, or even that its a
Honda!! I could not have done it without all the
technical support you and the staff provided. You were
there every step of the way and never got frustrated
with all my questions. Very professional job.

for a test run on Saturday. What a bike. Thanks
for all the phone support that you and Greg gave me.

Hey
guys ....I am riding the bike some more today
(finally warmed up enough) I just LOVE it! all my
friends and family are blown away how cool it looks
they all are taking pic. of it with their cell
phones!................I've noticed a kick ass good
side effect from the whole change over though...for
some crazy reason I think the long front end acts
like a tuning fork or something , because now MY
MIRRORS DONT VIBRATE any more ! and I used to feel a
lot of tingling at certain speeds through the old
stock seat but that's GONE ....it's a really stable
ride and since I got used to the wider turns it's
business as usual. I'm glad I chose you guys instead
of the competitor! y'all were real helpful and sharp
about the whole thing!

Hi Ken,
Well it's
done and what can I say, talk about a
transformation !
As
mentioned the kit arrived in Cape Town last
Wednesday so I took a few days to get the
other essentials organized such as fork
seals & fork oil etc.
I managed
to get a very willing friend (Vernon) to
come and help on Saturday morning. After I
had been out and got some last minute
essentials we started with the lift of the
bike onto the stands at around 11am. Once we
got the bike secure and the forks off I got
started with stripping the forks whilst
Vernon tacked the bearing seats. I had read
on another write up that the bearings seats
are hard to get to and punch out on post
2005 Dyna Glides and as such are easier to
remove with a small hand held cutting wheel
(Dremmel style cutter). The cutting wheel
worked fantastic, Vernon took his time as he
was concerned about cutting through the seat
into the frame but I advised him that this
did not matter too much as any cuts could be
dressed up and were not going to effect the
installation of the top tree and lower
adaptor.
Once the
seats were out we got started with the
re-assembly. We had put the bottom adaptor
in the freezer for about an hour so this
helped it to slip into position nicely. With
adaptor and top tree in place we then
installed the lower tree and forks. Once
that was done it was back on with the front
wheel. We took the bike off the stand and
finished refitting all of the other
components.
I was
riding the bike by 6:30pm so I would guess
that the whole job took us around 9 hours to
complete. I would say it is easier if you
can get help as another pair of hands always
come in handy. I am sure that without
Vernon, the job would have been closer to 12
hours or more.
The
following day Vernon and I covered around
150km around the Cape Town peninsula (it's
summer in Africa now). The bike runs true
and dead straight and does not suffer from
any undue front end bounce that you can get
with some chopper set ups. The ride is also
solid with no undue front end movement of
wobbles, I took it only up to around 120kmh,
but I am sure that there will be no issues
above that speed. Also, apart from the ride
it looks fantastic, the bike has been
transformed into something that looks like
it was built as a chopper from day 1.
I would
just like to personally thank you (and Greg)
for all your help and support. It is amazing
that we managed to do everything via e-mail
and never spoke once over the telephone and
yet everything that you claim on the
web-site is correct. The kit is amazing and
the components are top class engineering and
quality.
For anyone
out there who is sitting there wondering if
they should do this or not, trust me, get it
done ASAP you will not be disappointed. I
have attached a few pictures (one before the
kit as installed) of the first Chopper
in Africa (well I think so ?).
Thanks
again

I just wanted to
thank you for shipping my product out so quickly
and taking the time to talk to me Friday on the
phone. I got the 14 degree kit with 8 inch
overtubes. The wider front end looks awesome and
I even got to keep my chrome fork sliders! The
guys at Blue Ridge Harley® Davidson did a great
job installing the kit and had my bike back in
no time. They seemed impressed with the product
and it sure is a head turner now! Here are
before and after pictures so you can see what a
difference the kit made. It rides good too. I
did not have any problems and I am used to it
already. It does take room to turn around, but
that is expected. Thanks for making my bike look

I have enclosed three foto's
of my 2004 1200 XLC which I chopped during this past
winter.
I am very happy with the way
it turned out, and the product which you provided. I
have had a lot of positive comments about the look of
the bike, and I refer the people to your company and
website.
This bike is as rock steady
as you could hope and it handles like a dream, although
it is a little heavy at low speeds in parking lots,
driveway entrances, etc., but that is o.k. as you
shouldn't be speeding along at that point anyhow.
The support your staff
offered was without a doubt an asset to the ease of
which I put this kit together.
If in the future I choose to
do this again, I won't hesitate to get another front end
kit from you.
I purchased the 14 degree
kit with 6" tubes.

Greg, Thought I would send
you a couple pics of my old FX superglide shovel with
the new front end conversion. Install with your help was
real easy! Still got aways to go on the rest of the bike
but at least it's been resurerected from the basket and
is rideable. Again I want to thank you guys for all
your help and tech knowledge. It was a pleasure doing
buisness (and even just B.S'n) with you. I think the
front end looks great! Sure gets lots of looks!!! Also
am thinking about a wide tire kit from you guys.
Talk to you later!

Hey guys,
Well, here it is. I modified the front end on my 2001 FXST
Softail Standard with the Chopper Kit. 14 Degrees and 6"
over on the tubes. I've been riding around on this for
about a month now. I'm lovin' it. Handles beautifully.
In the 70s my older brother and sister used to hang around
with a bunch of guys with bikes. Everything from
Yamahas, Kawisakis, Harleys, and muscle cars used to show up
at our house on Friday nights. You might say I was
raised on bikes and motors. I also used to ride with my
uncle, Butch, on his Gold Wing quite a bit.
Since then, whenever I got my hands on anything with 2
wheels and an engine, I felt like it was a dream come true.
Literally, I had the dream, and when I finally got on a bike
it was just like the dream.
Now that I'm 42, and on my third (and maybe last) bike, I
tried to answer the question, "why I liked riding so much".
I always hear people talking about "getting the cobwebs out"
or "the freedom of the ride", etc. I ride because it still
feels like it used to - its still thrilling. And it feels
like the 70s to me.
There is another reason. I like the air - lots of fresh air
rushing into my lungs and obviously doing my body and spirit
good. You've heard of people heading out to "Oxygen Bars"
at airports and such. I laughed when I saw them paying for
oxygen, but I do understand the benefits. There is a better
way to get that oxygen - on a bike.
Finally, after all of these years, I closed the book on what
I really wanted - a chopper. Only I didn't have to "chop"
the frame. This kit is unbelievable. It's perfect, and its
rock solid. If you order this kit, get the install package,
too - with the Torque Wrench, extended brake line, etc.
This made it easy. Ken helped alot over the phone.
He even answered a question on a Sunday! Thanks, dude - to
you and your whole staff.
Also, thanks to another one of your customers, "Stick". He
helped answer my preliminary questions in deciding to try
this kit. Thanks, man.

Attention Greg: I just got my bike back and I must say it
does ride beautifully. Although it does take getting used to
at the lower speeds. The guys and girls at Sinkhole Customs
in Statesboro, Georgia went the extra mile to get my bike
ready for me, I would recommend them to anyone in this area.
Attached are the before and after shots of my bike, I would
be very proud if you decided to use the pics in your ad,
once again thanks for your help.

Hey Ken --
I don’t know if I ever sent you photos of the
completed project, so here are a few. Feel free
to post them on the “Customer Rides” section.
Love the ride! The bike is like a locomotive
running on tracks. I get lots of compliments
whenever I stop. Thanks for all your help.

Ken &
Greg:
I wanted an extended front end and when I found this
site I got excited. Reading all the comments was
encouraging but I remained skeptical until I spoke with
Ken.
After
further contemplating I decided to go for it. I had to
do all the work myself and I don’t claim to be an expert
wrench and I highly recommend having two people but it
wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be, even
changing out the down tubes was easy, of course many
calls to Ken & Gregg were made and they both are
tremendous people; they answered every question a walked
me through the rougher parts.
The
customer quality is one you don’t see much anymore and
can’t say enough about how great those two were.
I was
amazed at the look of the bike when finished; it looks
likes a different bike and handles better than stock,
yes there is a bit of a learning curve but after a good
day of riding, it’s old hat.
Ken
warned me that people would be checking it out and
asking questions, my first day out that happened and
continues to this day.

Ken, I'm glad I
called you, just by talking to you about what I
wanted you convinced me to buy from you.
although I was going to wait awhile I couldn't
stand it.I tracked the package from ups to the
day it was to arrived. I started tear down at
08:00 parts arrived at:00 and I was riding the
coolest bike in east Clackamas county by 16:30.
Now about your kit, It makes me very angry when
I take on a project and all the parts aren't
there, however this is NOT the case here, from
the extended brake line and the turn signal
relocater brackets, and the new head lamp, not
to mention the kit itself it was ALL THERE. I'm
very pleased with Quality, assembly, and
defiantly the looks, not to mention the ride.
Thanks Ken it was a pleasure dealing with you.
I've included a couple of pics .

Dear Ken & Greg,
First, I
would like to say thank you for all of the
support. No matter what product is ever sold, it
is the support and expertise of a company that
makes a purchase successful. I have owned 20
motorcycles in my life (spanning 53 years) and
my current daily driver is the first NEW bike I
have ever purchased (April 8, 2006). I wanted a
Wide Glide, but was hesitant to spend $5k more
for chrome and a slightly raked front end that I
would want to eventually change everything on it
anyway, so I purchased a stripped Street Bob ( I
wanted a blacked out engine and wire wheels,
dash, etc for my basics) through one of my
student's parent, who just so happened to be the
CEO of American Powersports. (being a teacher of
children does have benefits, as I got the bike
at cost!) I obtained a set of 2006 Dyna Wide
Glide take off sheet metal (I didn't have to
paint it, but I will to make it "my own" this
next summer) and made typical mechanical changes
(exhaust, air cleaner, cams, V & H fuelpack),
numerous ergonomic and aesthetic changes
(handlebars, mirrors, chrome, gauges,
saddlebags, lighting, forward controls) . Most
of the take-offs from my bike I sold on eBay at
a higher price than I paid for the upgrades, so
I was pleased with my decision to NOT buy the
pre-packaged bike from Harley® that today's
"Rolex-Riders" buy for their mid-life weekend
jaunts. And since I've done everything from
rebuilding Panheads, Shovels, Sporties & Evo's
to painting ( I must admit, I've never worked on
Buells or V-Rods, but I don't consider them to
be traditional H-D's anyway) I figured I would
do the "sh**s" to this bike.
This takes
me all the way to you.
I wanted a
radically raked front end - not too ridiculous
to drive daily, but something noticeable. I
looked on-line and read several articles in the
trade magazines and found several alternatives.
The only two companies available for complete
conversion were your company and Seeger Cycle.
At $1700.00+, I
decided that eating and paying my mortgage was
more important, so I opted for just getting
raked trees and longer fork tubes. I did all the
calculations for steering and front end geometry
and purchased 3 degree raked tress from
Accutronix and 6" extended 49mm tubes from
Custom Cycle engineering. Total package=
$1000.00 ...and that didn't include the custom
built 1" axle front 21" 80 spoke wheel from DNA
and JayBrake J-six caliper. I installed it all,
and the bike looked longer, was as raked as a
stock wide glide, but was 3.5" taller in the
front. It looked chopped, but I couldn't touch
my feet to the ground at stop lights without
playing "ballerina." I e-mailed Seeger cycle,
who didn't respond, so I called them. It took
two days to get them to answer. Then they stated
that they weren't able to provide a 49mm front
end conversion.
Now, to allay my
guilt for not calling or contacting you first...Seeger
cycle has ads in the trade magazines monthly,
your company... sporadically.
I went to your
website and was genuinely impressed. I thought,
"where were these guys hiding?" After several
conversations with the two of you, I decided to
sell a kidney and take the plunge. The complete
conversion kit wasn't necessary, as I had many
of the components already. You presented a fair
price for the parts I needed, we agreed, then I
paid and you shipped . . . FAST! I figured,
"well, these guys are men of their word; the
product must be good." The trees are as
first-rate as any custom made triple tree set I
have ever seen, at ANY price. I installed the
kit in half a day and when I went to torque the
front axle, I found it was stripped. I called my
local H-D dealer and their response was,"we told
you not to buy that!" Yes . . . independant
a**holes. According to them, "if it don't say
H-D, it ain't sh**." I called you and you
looked for an axle for me. You shipped one that
you had in storage and I received it right away,
only to find it wasn't the right axle (not your
fault).
I called H-D ( I
needed a stiff drink before I called them), and
there wasn't a 1" 2006 wide glide axle in all of
Florida or Georgia. 7 days minimum! As I haven't
missed driving to Daytona for Bike week in 15
years I was bummed. I decided to call you for
help. You stated that you could find an axle for
me, and you did. It was a H-D part and cost half
of what my dealership would sell it for. You
ordered it, had it shipped overnight to you,
then overnighted it to me.
I was blown away
by your service. In all my years I had never
received dedication to making a customer happy
as what you provided for me.
I installed the
axle (a whopping 15 minutes) and off to Daytona
I went to enjoy beer, half-naked women and gobs
of manufacturers, etc.
I love the ride,
the look and the quality of the product. With
the 6" over and the 14 degree additional rake,
the bike steers practically the same, although
turning radius is increased. The ride, with a
longer wheelbase, is more solid than stock by
far. AND...there is not a parking lot that I
pull into that people don't come up to me and
admire the front end.
I sing your praises.
Again, thank you.

I ordered the 14 degree
8 inch extension kit from you and had it installed
about a month ago on my 2001 Sportster Custom. It
took right at 8 hours to have it installed. Thanks
Ken, for taking the time to talk walk me through the
decision. I can honestly say, this was the best
investment I have ever made in a bike. The bike
looks and rides great. It was a little heavy at
first, but after a little time on the bike it is
business as usual. I've owned several Harleys, and
this bike now feels like my Wideglide. In fact, I
believe it is now longer than my Wideglide. It is
definitely an attention getter, and has become my
favorite bike. It's now referred to as"The Chopster".
Thanks again,

Here are some pictures of my
scooter. It has 14 degree rake with 8 over tubes. The way it
rides and handles is awsome. Cornering is a larger
radius but that is to be expected. Heads really turn when
they see my Chopster. This chopper kit KICKS ASS.
I am very pleased with my new upgrade. People ask me where I
got the kit, I always tell them

Hi guys,
Here are a couple of pics of my 04 Sportster with a

Still loving the kit. It is better then Seeger's as far
as I could tell from their recent article in American
Iron. I have thousands of miles on my kit and it rides
better than stock. I also stretched the rear swing arm.
Thanks for the kit that brought the project together.

I would like to thank you for selling a good product and
your excellent service. I purchased a 14 degree 10” over
tubes for my 96 XL 883; it was easy to install and
Took only 8hrs. to remove stock front end and install
your kit. I am very pleased with the way it Looks and
Rides. I showed in the ISCA 2007 World of Wheels
Won BEST in class and had a lot of good comments on the
front end. Here are a couple of shots of the bike I
would be pleased if you could use them on your web site.

My
bike still has a few more things I plan on adding, but I
just had to go ahead and send this email in.
I can’t believe how great the ride is now….the
new front end actually rides better through curves and
straightaways than the stock set-up to me.
It’s definitely an eye-turner….actually was
pulled over leaving work the other day just so the cops
could get a better look at my bike.
Maybe after everything is finished, I’ll send you
some before and after pics…..It’s definitely a blessing
to be back on the road, but to be back on the road in class
means that much more to me.
But
in the meantime, feel free to use these if you want, this
has definitely been the best money I’ve ever spent on my
Harley®....thanks again guys, GREAT JOB!!!

Hey, remember me? I'm in West Virginia, bought a bike in New York back in August, rode in the pouring rain for 4-5 hours to Shawn Hart's (of Hart Custom Cycles) in Pennsylvania... Well, picked the bike up last weekend & left PA at 40° & rode that new chopper home for about 330+ miles to it's new West Virginia home!
I love it & it looks & handles GREAT! I actually ordered the 14° Kit w/10" Over Tubes from you before I had even bought the bike! Haha
Here's a pic as I purchased it in New York, a 2003 Kawasaki Vulcan 800A.I'll shortly be sending some pics of how it looks right now. Hehee

I
got my 14 deg 6in over kit this last week and finally
got it all set up. Wow! I could not be
happier with my bike. Admittedly it takes a
little getting used to the new center of gravity and
balance, but the ride is so much smoother, and the
bike is so much cooler!! I have a before and
after picture to share with you. Yes, I added a
bit more chrome to my generally stock 2004 XL 1200R,
changed the mirrors with some cool flames from Tejas
Thump Cycles, and both pictures show the Vance and
Hines slip-on mufflers-- but there is no denying the
difference your chopper kit makes on my bike.
One of my buddies told me yesterday-- wow,
that has to be one of the coolest Sporties I
have ever seen. I am thrilled with my "new
bike".

Hello,
To
say this front end looks good is like saying the Queen
Mary was just a boat. I never could have added
anything to change the looks to my bike like this
kit.
Ken and Greg are men of there word, everything they
said and promised came true. The handling of the bike is
better now than when it was new. The front end is heavier in
slow turns but after a few short rides you become
used to it. Now this is a 2002 FXD the first thing i did
was to drop the back end one inch with the shocks. Next I
raised the gas tank front by three inches. I talked to
Greg several times and this helped me to select the 14
degeree with 10 over tubes.
when i lowered the back end
,the bike stood upright abit to much, but the 10 over
tubes brought everything back just fine. Greg also helped
me out with the head light,throttle cables, and clutch
cable. They can get about anything you need to turn your
bike into something that is an extension of you,also
they have the ability to help you make thoses tough
decisions. thanks for everything.

I
just wanted to let you guys know how much I appreciate
your help. The communication on the phone and
getting me the right parts were great.
My
bike's new look with the 14 degree, 8" over kiy
looks COOL.. Everything everyone had to
say was right on. MY windsheild even looks good
on it too.
Where I live, the morning rides can
be in the 40 degree mark so the windshield helps a
lot.
It did not take long for me to get used to riding it,
maybe because whrn I was a kid my friends and I used
to cut the forks from an old bike cycle,
then attach
them to the other bike and ride chopper bikes around
town. I was about 11, 12 years at the time, now
48, but the experience and memories are still there.
Hey, you are never too old to ride and you people just
made my riding more exciting. It sure saves the
expense of buying one of those $45-80,000 chopper
bikes.
Oh yea, say hellow to my friend Scooter, he is the big
white cocatoo on my shoulder. If I had a small
enough helment he would ride with me too.
Thake
care and thanks again.

5,000 Mile Update:
Hello,
Just wanted to let you know that I've put approximately
5,000 miles on my 2005 1200C since installing the 14 degree,
41mm, 8" over kit.
The bike has performed and handled perfectly, and I've had
absolutely zero problems. I bike continues to draw a
crowd where ever I happen to travel, and I've had nothing
but positive comments.
Most of the miles I've put on the bike consist of
"cruising" in the 60 to 70 MPH range, and the bike
is completely stable and has turned into an excellent long
range cruiser.
Thanks again for producing such an excellent product.

Hi
Guys,
Just
wanted to thank you for offering such a great product.
I just got my 2005
1200C back on the road today after installing
the 41mm,
14 degree, 8 inch over kit.
Installation was a snap,
and the instructions were complete and easy to follow.
I put almost 150 miles on the bike today, including a
few brief
high speed bursts that were well above posted limits.
The bike
is rock solid, and the increased wheelbase does wonders
for
overall ride comfort.
The 'choppy' ride noticed with the stock
wheelbase is completely gone, and the bike feels as
comfortable
at speed as my Dyna WideGlide. Of course (with the 70
inch
wheelbase) the frontend feels a little heavy when
pulling in or out
of tight parking spaces, but it's nothing major.
Thanks
again for answering all my question, and for offering
such
a great product.

I'm
glad those pictures finally went through. I originally wrote
how incredibly pleased I was with the way the bike handled.
Everything you guys said about the trail was true. It
actually rides nicer than when it was new. Just like a car,
the longer wheel base provides a smoother, more stable
feeling ride.
I
can't imagine ever getting rid of this bike now that it has
your kit on it. If anything ever happened to it, I would
immediately order another of your kits for whatever bike I
got to replace it.
I'm
including a few more pictures of my 2004 Honda 600 VLX
deluxe. Hopefully these will also come through. The only
changes I made besides your kit were the addition of a Vance
& Hines exhaust system for a great sound, Honda logos
removed and flashier handgrips.
The
best part about this bike is the Honda dealer inspected it
so I don't have to be concerned about being stopped and
given tickets. It's a good thing too with the way it draws
stares. I'd be getting fined on a daily basis.

Ken,
First off, let me assure you that I am no mechanical genius. This was the easiest modification I have ever done to my 03 FXST
. It took 3 evenings after work for my buddy Brian and I to install the 14 degree 8" over kit. (one full evening was spent trying to find a bearing race removal tool. The dremel took 5 minutes).
The bike tracks straight and true. I took my hands off the bars at 120 mph without a problem. U-turns are now 3-5 point turns so I am now much more careful where I park.
My bike definitely stands out riding in the pack or in a crowded parking lot now. Thanks Ken, You guys rock.

Ken,
Here it is! Been done for
a while, but every time the weather was nice I was too busy
riding it to take some pics. Your kit was a breeze, and the
ride and handling has actually improved on my V-Star 1100
Custom. I've put a little over 400 miles on the bike since the
kit was done and have enjoyed every mile. Our concerns about
the 12 over tubes raising the bike were for nothing, the 50
degrees of rake seems to have balanced out the raise of the
tubes and the bike almost seems lower. In the midst of winter
I've been turning heads and getting lots of comments, I can't
wait for warmer weather and some bike events. Thanks for a
quality product and great service before, during and after the
sale.

Here
are a few comments as well that you can post if you
want.
This
is my 04' XLC, I was very hesitant at first about
chopping this bike as everyone said don't do it!
That was all of the old school hard core bikers...they
said the front end would shake and vibrate and I would
regret it, Wrong!!! This is hands down the best
bang for your buck. The bike handles great even at
115MPH! I had a solo seat and 11" shocks on
in this photo but I have since installed a 2 up Corbin
seat and went back to 11.5" shocks so I can cruise
with a rider if I want.
The
service after the sale was second to none, Ken &
Greg always returned e-mails and phone calls very
quickly and were very professional. I would
recommend this kit and these guys to anyone interested
in building a chopper.
If
you have a good bike don't waste your money buying a new
custom like I almost did, just build it yourself with
one of their kits. I installed this kit in less
than 8 hours total time.

Ken,
Got'er
done. Took a total of about 12 hrs. to complete.
Everything went smooth. Easier than I thought. The looks I
got from the people made it all worth it. To me it's like
having a new bike. I'm very pleased with the finished
results. Handles better than stock on the open road. Gonna
take a little gettin' used turning in places like parking
lots and driveways
because of the change in the steering radius. I should
have that mastered shortly.
Again,
thanks for a great product. I am very satisfied.

Sorry these took so incredibly long but that's what happens when a digital camera is tied up in a divorce lol. I was extremely skeptical of purchasing an item such as a chopper kit over the Internet. After many conversations with Ken on the phone I explained to him that I never buy anything before it’s checked out through and through and even then one more time I check it out.
He assured me that I would be extremely pleased with the purchase and even happier once the kit was installed and I got on the road to check it out.
Well I bit the bullet and gave out the ole credit card and the kit was on the way. I installed the kit on my ’03 883 Custom Sportster and let me tell you she rode like a soft tail to some degree.
The first thing I noticed was the front end was heavier in slow turns, and taking off, but I adjusted to that quickly. What I really liked was my bike cruised much better and didn’t hit every bump like it used to, the rear end now gave a lot more and the ride is much much better than stock by far I can assure you of this!
Talk about looks, everywhere people are gazing from small kids to the babes that I can now chase being single, remember the digital camera.
My buddy Long John @ M & M Stop and Shop a “Biker Friendly Rest Area” in El-Paso Arkansas did the install. It went completely smooth outside of putting a couple of spacers in to lift the handle bars up a tad.
The whole transaction with Ken was of complete professionalism between a couple of bikers. I would recommend changing your front end to a chopper and you will be the look of every ride and event. I felt like a kid again @ 38 years old.
Thanks a bunch Ken and by the way I had to sell my bike because of the freaking ex and the divorce but I know where to buy my next front end.

It
was 38 degrees today, so I made sure the tire pressure was
o.k., got leathered up with a full-face helmet, and went
on our maiden voyage.
Off
the line to 35 m.p.h. there's an obvious difference that
took all of 3-4miles of in town riding to get used to with
no trouble. Then we hit the highway. Ooooh! At 75m.p.h.,
moving with sparce traffic, I screwed in the throttle-stop
and let her go with just my two fingertips on the ends of
the bars. I lifted my hands once in a while and started
steaming up the inside of my helmet from laughing. It felt
at least as smooth and stable as before, plus
I got such a kick out of looking down the forks to
the wheel. What a fine product!!
It is exactly right for my bike both in looks and
function. I stumbled onto your web-site while
looking at chopper images. Isn't it funny how things
happen some times? I've been on such a high since we trailered
the bike home yesterday that my 8-hour work day seemed
more like 16-hours. I wanted to get reacquainted with my
Softail-Custom. 'Hot' seems like a good word for it. It
sometimes strikes me like a fighter-jet with its' angles.
Boy, is it definitely fun!! It's impossible to feel
humble while riding around on my Harley® with the kit
on it. Ya gotta feel special. My brother-in-law came over
with his family tonight just to check it out as he owns a
1999 1200 Sportster Custom and he's combed through
your web-site at least as much as I have. I guess you
could say that I'm overwhelmed.

Hey Ken, I'm sending pics of my kit installed. It took me
a little over a day, thats only 'cause I didn;t have a couple
tools I used. Not only do I love it finished,everyone else
does to! The ride is great and the looks are better. I got
the 14 degree 6 over and I have to thank you for a great
kit! Enough said, let the pics do the talkin'...

Hi Ken,
Last year when I bought this bike,I never thought it would
turn out this awesome! With the kit,well it was so
cool, I just had to do a few more things.I got the 14
degree 6 " over, and it was an easy install.The ride
and handling is great! I went in for my first
service at the local dealer and the bike was surrounded by
customers and employees before I even got off of it.Thanks
again for such a great kit and all the help,making my bike
one of a kind,and something to be proud of... Rick Fernatt
Elkhart,IN. P.S. You
might want to delete the first pic. I have on your
site,this one is better,Your choice.Thanks Ken

I found the chopper
kit on an Internet search about a year and a half
ago doing bike kit searches. Was interested, but
wanted to sell my bike and build another. As time
went on, I decided to keep my bike and just change
it. I'd always wanted a long bike and the kit
looked like a way to make it happen. After talking
to Ken and studying the website, I was convinced
this was the way to go. With this kit the front end
geometry is engineered to look good AND ride good.
The service before
the sale was great. No pressure at all because the
kit sells itself. Ken spent lots of time with me on
the phone answering questions and putting together
the perfect package. Since my bike is a ground-up
custom, that was no easy task. Waiting for 18 degree
kit was definitely worth it. Plus I had the
satisfaction of being the first 18 degree kit to be
installed and ridden in the US. I even beat the shop
bike!
Ken and Greg never
lost patience with me and walked me through the
installation whenever I needed help. Greg even made
himself available at night, when he was at home.
They seemed as excited about my bike as I was. Best
service after the sale I've ever had on anything.
All in all, an awesome experience.
As you can see from
the before and after pictures, the bike is a LOT
longer. Turning it around takes more room because
it has such a long wheelbase. The bike feels heavier
in low speed, tight turns, but it's nothing a rider
can't get used to. Once the speed gets up to city
street speeds of 25 to 35, I can't tell any
difference in the handling. At highway speeds it's
rock solid.
This kit has made
more difference in my bike than any other change I
could possibly make. I might have achieved the same
results by taking the bike to a local chopper shop
and having them rake and stretch the frame. But no
way would I have the same engineered ride, not to
mention spending thousands more. Plus, I don't have
to worry about welds breaking or the frame not being
true. This kit has turned my bike from just another
softail to a stand-out head-turner. My only concern
is that once good weather comes, everybody in
Virginia will buy a chopper kit and my bike will
just be average again.
Thanks, guys. You are
the best.

Hey Guys,
This is by far the BEST
addition to my bike!
The install is
straight forward and can be accomplished by anyone with
basic mechanical skills. It is, for the most part, a
"BOLT-ON and GO" system. No protractors or
slide rules or fancy devices to measure the angle of
rake or trail dimension in relation to the sun
during the winter equinox !! (or the stars if
installing at night like I did...)
I can't say enough about the
customer service!!!!
Greg Bigham
was standing by 24/7 to answer any questions I had and
was more than helpfull on several occasions.
I have yet to find a cutomer
service as TOP-NOTCH as this!!
The company's reputation can stand
alone on the quality of the customer service!!
The bike looks and rides
GREAT !!!
I
got the install finished just in time for the Grand
Opening of Space Coast Harley® Davidson. I entered in the
bike show and WON 2nd Place in the "radical
sportster" division on the first outing with my new
chopper!!! If I ever get another bike, it will be
"chopped" with a kit from
"CHOPPER-KIT-USA" !!!

I ordered my kit about three
months ago. Mainly due to my 6 feet plus stature on a
small bike. I could not be happier with the
results. The kit installed easily over a weekend,
working by myself. My sporty handles great in my opinion
better then stock. Now when I ride with by friends,
riding larger more expensive bikes, mine is the one that
gets noticed. I would also recommend to those installing
the kit on a sportster using the stock front fender to
flip it backwards. It moves the leading edge forward on
the front wheel for a cleaner look. Thank you very
much for offering such an innovative product. Please
feel free to post photos of my bike on your website.

Gentlemen
The chopper kit was one of the easiest, most
effective installations I have done on any vehicle; it
bolted directly up to my 2004 FXSTB. I have very
rarely enjoyed the high level of customer service that your
organization offers; in particular, Greg Bigham was of
superlative support, both before, during and after the sale
and installation. It took me a little more than a week
to throw together, but that was putting in a few hours after
work every day, and completing the other projects.
The handling is different, but
not bad - I am reminded more of the length of the front end,
especially when I creep up and almost bump into cars at
stoplights. I have run the bike to the maximum legally
allowed speed with no issues, and as I relearn the handling,
I will be grinding pegs again in the parking lot.
I will recommend
this kit to whomever asks - it draws other riders wherever I
park, and I get complements from all over (even screamed at
me at 65mph on the Interstate).
Thanks

Hey Ken,
Here's she is....done! The short straight risers and drag
bars make her a dream to steer. Had to move the turn signals
to the forks. You were right.
She attracts a crowd! Went to a bike rally with over 200
bikes present and had a crowd before we could get out
helmets off!
Thanks again for the help.

Hi Ken,
Here's a picture
of my 04 1200 XLH Sportster. Again thanks, you were very helpful
and professional. I can't tell you how HAPPY I AM. The bike
rides just like stock. Thanks for the advice to get the 41mm
legs upgrade, it looks incredible. You guys are the best.
Anyone that sees my bike will know who I dealt with and where to
get one.
Thanks for
everything

This is
my 2004 XL 1200 C. The day I finished the bike
I took it to the local HD shop and right away I had
three other riders coming over and telling me how
great the bike looked. Just about every time I
ride I have had someone tell me how great the bike
looks. This was the first time I have ever
done this and I hope not the last. The kit and
directions were right on the money. I did have
a couple of question and Ken answered them professionally
and in depth.
Thanks
Very Much

Here
is the picture of my completed 1999 Sportster. It looks and
rides great. People often stop and ask how I did it. It's a
blast to ride and I feel like I am riding a custom chopper. The
kit is as high quality as you promised.

Ken,
Chad at Hampton Roads Harley® Davidson and his crew handled
the install, they did a great job. The front end is rock
solid. I picked it up Saturday evening and promptly
rode out of the parking lot and about 50 miles to the beach
here in Virginia Beach (my home) 65-75 mph and the
front end was solid all way...no vibrations, no wobble...the
mirrors were steadier than they were when the bike was
stock! I can't say enough about how it rides at speed.
Parking lot speeds are a bit of a challenge but that is just
getting used to the increased turning radius and a
difference in balance. I also installed a 2"
lowering kit from White Bros. and dropped the rear end 1
3/4". Rides a bit stiffer but looks very good.
I have gotten a few head turns since Saturday!
This weekend will be a test..local Bike hangout (Boneshakers
in VA Beach) is always packed so we'll see what the crowd
says!!
Here is a shot of me on the bike and another of my lady.
She is 5'2" and can now flat foot the softail!!
Thanks again for your help. It was definitely worth
waiting on. I will make sure everyone knows where I
got it from.

Ken, I just want to say that the rake
kit you sold me is better then I could have hoped for. My
1999 Sportster Custom handles extremely well at all
speeds. It also rides much better then stock. The kit was
fairly easy to install and anyone with an average level
of mechanical ability should have no problem installing this
kit. Thanks again Ken for all your help and I will gladly give
your name to anyone who is interested in a kit, and there have
been many!

The chopper kit install
went great. We had it done in a day and it looks
terrific! We will be buying more kits in the near
future to convert more Harley's for our showroom.

Hey Ken, just wanted to say thanks for an awesome chopper kit. Easy
installation, great instructions, and the looks and handling are great. I
have a few new parts to put on like a K&N air filter assembly (tear drop
with flames) and a few others but am almost done with this bike. I just wanted to say great product.
Thanks, Chad
